"Paterno" author Joe Posnanski to appear on "Costas Tonight"

In a release from the NBC Sports Network we learn that "Paterno" author Joe Posnanski will be a guest on the next "Costas Tonight" show on the NBC Sports Network on Wednesday at 9 p.m. The show is hosted by the lead figure of NBC Sports, 23-time Emmy award winner Bob Costas.

It's a 60-minute show and in addition to Costas’ one-on-one with Posnanski, "Costas Tonight" will feature the entire interview – including never-before-seen footage – that Costas conducted with convicted child molester Jerry Sandusky, which aired exclusively on Rock Center with Brian Williams on November 14, 2011.

Posnanski, an eyewitness to history, spent months embedded within Penn State to write "Paterno," and had unprecedented access to the head coach before and then after the scandal broke at the school.
